Dave: IMG Jim Lynch Makes Landscape Art... Out of Text



jimlynchIf Carl Hiaasen set one of his novels on a residential stretch of boundary line between British Columbia and Washington, or if Richard Russo's characters had relatives in the Pacific Northwest, the result might be something like Jim Lynch's Border Songs. Continue »

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

"Don’t need friends, don’t need ’em at all," grumbles Rat each day as he makes his morning rounds of the junkyard, searching for scraps. Ever since Rat’s best friend, Possum, moved away, Rat has been too lonesome and grumpy to enjoy anybody else’s company. But one day, a dog moves in–a dog who’s even grouchier than Rat. It’s a friendship made in junkyard heaven, but it will take a bitterly cold winter and an act of surprising generosity to turn the battling duo into the dearest of chums.

Synopsis:

There's a new dog in the junkyard, and boy, is he ever grouchy He seems the perfect friend for surly, grumbling Rat. But the two animals are only interested in shouting at each other. Don't you come near me barks Dog, and Rat mutters back, Fine with me. Don't need friends, don't need 'em at all But as this crusty duo soon discovers, everybody needs a friend. Especially during a bitter winter in a junkyard where warmth is hard to find-- and a foot-long salami sandwich is a near-miracle.

Endearing and sassy, this uplifting story of the importance of companionship will put a smile on even the grumpiest of faces.
